Julius W. McKay, II, and Cynthia K. Mason,
both of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Frederick
T. McKnight, as the personal representative of the estate of Brooks Leon
Thomas, appeals the order of the circuit court granting summary judgment in
favor of Dr. Jose Chavez. McKnight argues the circuit court erred in (1)
holding no duty of care existed as a matter of law; (2) holding no proximate causation
existed as a matter of law; and (3) failing to rule on a survival claim. We
affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities:

1. As to whether the circuit court
erred in holding no duty of care existed as a matter of law: McKnight v.
Just Care, Inc., 385 S.C. 380, 684 S.E.2d 566 (Ct. App. 2009) (holding that,
as a matter of law, a treatment center had no duty of care to decedent when
decedent's suicide occurred nearly a year after discharge).

2. As to all other issues: Futch v. McAllister Towing of Georgetown, Inc., 335 S.C. 598, 613, 518 S.E.2d 591, 598 (1999) (holding
that an appellate court need not review remaining issues on appeal when its
determination of a prior issue is dispositive).

AFFIRMED.

FEW, C.J.,
KONDUROS, J., and CURETON, A.J., concur.

[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to
Rule 215, SCACR.
